James: The move he made to dump her bike, the foot against wheel and pull on seat is a move taught to cops, so I doubt if he was charged for anything. Why did he......

protestarmy: I found and posted what is attributed to be the couriers version of this story. I found this on Spacing Wire. It presents a slightly different angle on the whole keying of the car issue.......

TO_guy: Is that littering pig from this country? If not I suggest we send him back. If he is he should be charged. Maybe a little jail time would smarten his ass up. ......

Dan: I can't believe I read this far... Because of the notoriety of this blog entry, its not surprising to see so many trolls coming here. I have to believe that a lot of the angry people......

in response to: Motorist Vs Courier by hool

Aaron: Yeah, the guy shouldn't have thrown garbage out on the street. And couriers are probably particularly sensitive to that since they are exposed to being hit by debris thrown out of car......

JimboToronto: I can't believe the hatred spewing from the tiny pea brains of the cargoofs. Cargoof Matt says,"That dumb courier got what she deserved. They selectively follow traffic laws, and then all of a sudden they're environmentalists?......

Yukon: Couriers are all dicks. they think they own the fucking road because they are on a bike. If the the snarling pencil neck woman-beater did in fact litter then he needs to have his neck......

in response to: Motorist Vs Courier by hool

Mojo-B: I believe both parties were wrong. Why? Eventhough the guy littered his food, doesn't make it a right for the bike courier to throw the food back. Don't like it, piss off then. If......

Huey: I do not care how much you hate littering, there is no excuse for throwing the garbage back into the car. If you don't like the fact that the person littered, pick up the trash......

crispy: Speaking as a courier myself with many a year on the road, I can empathize with Leah and her actions toward this raging lunatic. I have picked litter dropped from many a car and deposited......

What's Really Going On Here: It's interesting that this is primarily a concerned citizen vs. a s***head matter, not a cyclist vs motorist issue. The reason why it has exploded as the latter is due to the decades of......

Jerry: As this city used to be called "Hogtown" I thing "Pigtown" would be more apropo. Why? 1) The rectitude laced moron courier (and as a pedestrian I have only contempt for the arrogant, spoilt, disrespectfull cyclists,......

Unbelievable: Both parties in this are definitely ego-monsters. I agree with the above poster(Sault Ste. Marie) and many others. The courier should have taken down the plate number and reported the motorist, and picked up the......

morethanenough: Forget about banning handguns and the gun registry, these bike couriers are a threat to the very roots of our civilization. They should all be subject to detailed and thorough background and psychiatric checks, registered......

ed: Yes ! hool deserves many thanks for this. As a male, I strongly object to other males physically attacking females. Defending oneself from a females' physical attack is another matter. This......

Erica Grsyowski: She (the courier) picked up his cup, went to his truck, opened the door and threw it at him. Picking on people for littering is like picking on people for George Bush for being stupid. If she......

whatever: I didn't read all the comments, but i am damn sure that if someone threw my garbage back into my car I'd be pissed off enough to throw coffee at them and assault their bike.......

in response to: Motorist Vs Courier by hool

Both sides: I have read/heard both side of the story. Unfortunately, the "motorist's" side was stated by his fiancé and not by him, as the actual participant. Both sides are plausible but I am still......

spunky : Talk about over-reacting. He litters. She throws it back in his SUV. She keys his SUV. He freaks out, tries to bash her bike, and tries to beat her up. I'd say there are......

Timothy_Ronin: Gender should not be an issue here. Stupidity is all the issue here. Yes..he was a #1 asshole for littering. I am sick to death of seeing people litter these days. It's starting to look......

in response to: Motorist Vs Courier by hool

To 'She Had in coming', 'The Motorists' and Everyone else.: It's too late to defend this very very dumb individual. Why is it everyone who claims to know him personally writes the exact same way? So "Brother in Law" are the kind of......

vince: In LEGAL terms, the motorist may be charged for littering, but ultimately, the courier girl is at fault for vandalising his car. Although some of you may want the man to go to jail, that's......

DANK to White Vest Girl: You can’t actually think that people with post grade 9 educations would believe your account of things. Or could you? I know this courier girl, and had a run in with her vicariously. She has......

zoe: I'm just curious about White Vest Lady's story: at what point did your fiancee throw your coffees on the courier? The pictures show that she's dripping wet, so I'm just wondering. Furthermore, why on earth......

in response to: Motorist Vs Courier by hool

To White Vest Girl: Your significant other is known to police for previous assualts, isn't he? Yes we know that. The eyewitness statements of the first incident more closely parralel the couriers side of things. The fact is your......
